HC Deb 21 July 1980 vol 989 c85W
Mr. Sheerman

asked the Minister for the Civil Service why there has been a threefold increase in the price of Economic Trends issued by the Central Statistical Office.

Mr. Channon

This title, in common with other CSO publications, was considerably underpriced for a number of years. The increases therefore reflect both the effect of inflation over the period concerned and steps to ensure that the price reflects the full cost of publication.
